The SECIR WG advises Council to set-up a oversight committee of community members and others to ensure continuity of guidance and oversight in maintaining and enhancing the SECIR list. If so requested by Council members of SECIR are available to draft a charter for such an Oversight committee, and submit this draft charter together with its Final Report.
